Very hurting to hear that you plp saying a NOTABLE MUSICIAN, SHEHNAI PLAYER AND STATE GOVRENMENT CIVILIAN AWARDEE AS NOT A NOTABALE MUSICIAN for creating a article on his name Draft:Krishna Ballesh, without notabality how state will honor him a greatest civilian awardee, just now iam feeling and finiding my time is wasted, that in wikipedia, we have only fake and non notable plp in wikipedia list and paid content not genuine much, some plp from before itself created issues for this article for money asking feeling bad, no one is allowing to create and developing it.

- Taani1990, I am sorry for your feelings but what is your question? CommanderWaterford (talk) 10:05, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
- Taani1990 If you are aware of articles about "fake" or non-notable people, please point them out so they can be addressed, we could use the help. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible for inappropriate articles to go undetected, even for years. We can only address what we know about. That inappropriate articles exist does not mean that yours can too. See other stuff exists.
- As for the subject of your draft, many people have attempted to write about them, but none has demonstrated that they meet the Wikipedia definition of a notable person, as shown with significant coverage in independent reliable sources. The sources you have offered are all announcements of routine activities. 331dot (talk) 10:56, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

I'm trying to understand why the news source I referenced (Tulsa World) wasn't considered reliable. There is another "Gary Davis" article that also uses a regional newspaper article as its source:
https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Gary_Lee_Davis https://coloradosun.com/2019/03/04/1997-gary-davis-execution-colorado/
Is there a specific form of accreditation that the Colorado Sun had that Tulsa World did not?
- Courtesy Ping for the Reviewer: @Padavalamkuttanpilla:. I assume that the reviewer wanted to tell you that you need by far more than one source to establish a general notability via WP:BIO and WP:GNG, see also WP:THREE. CommanderWaterford (talk) 10:04, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Would like to ask why the page was declined, we are trying to build a page dedicated to one the greatest sea workers we have ever came across. I understatd he is an average white man but he is renowned throughout the maritime world. Peks636 (talk) 10:49, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
- Peks636 Who is "we"? Accounts may not be shared, you must be the only one with access to your account. Your draft is completely unsourced; because of that and the non encyclopedic writing style, the reviewer felt it was a hoax. For someone to merit an article, there must be significant coverage in independent reliable sources that have chosen on their own to write about them, showing how they meet Wikipedia's special definition of a notable person. That he is a white man is not germane to that. 331dot (talk) 11:02, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
- Peks636, welcome to AfC Help desk. I think you are talking about Draft:Donald Etheridge Legend of the high seas. Wikipedia cannot accept the articles that are Unreferenced. sources are needed to verify the information in the article. You submission seems more like original research and was not cited with a single source. Try improving the draft and go through WP:YFA, WP:CITE, WP:REFB and WP:IC. –Kammill ⟨talk⟩ 11:05, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
